At the base of the DOMINA plus system: controls and actuators

The DOMINA plus home automation system is based on distributed logic technology. In this sense, the system provides a range of devices that are essentially divided into two main groups: control devices and actuation devices.

Actuation devices

They electrically actuate the received command according to the type of load to be managed, such as the rolling shutter or thermoregulation actuators.

Control devices

They act as user interfaces, such as touch screens, push-button controls or room thermostats.

DOMINA plus technology, a “logical” choice

One of the advantages of the DOMINA plus technology is that each channel of each individual AVEbus device can be freely addressed – independently of the others. Each DOMINA bus device has one or more channels; each one is totally independent and can be identified through an address which is assigned during programming. One channel of a control device (Tx) and one actuator device (Rx) having the same address are “logically connected” one of an another. The actuator device receives the message sent by the control device and activates the load which is physically connected to it.

Addressing of DOMINA devices plus

The address of each channel of the DOMINA plus devices is made of two alphanumeric characters (according to a hexadecimal system from 0 to F).The control device can be programmed to control one single address associated with an actuator device, one group of addresses associated with several actuator devices or all addresses of the actuator devices. This mechanism is programmed and managed according to the address assigned to the control device, where the first alphanumeric character of the address represents the group or “family” of addresses of the actuator devices and the second alphanumeric character represents the single actuator device which belongs to that group of addresses. Because of the hexadecimal system, there are 15 groups of addresses (families) each composed of 16 independent addresses (called “points”).

Addressing modes

The channels of the AVEBus devices can be basically addressed in three ways:

DIRECT MODE (Point – Point): a single channel of a control device ( Tx) controls only the channels having the same address of one or more actuator devices (Rx).

BY GROUP (multicast): a single channel of a control device (Tx) controls all the channels of the actuator devices whose first digit of the address is the same as the second digit of the address of the control device (Tx).

The address of the control device must always begin with the special value “F” followed by the group of addresses to be controlled. There are 15 groups with a maximum of 16 addresses each.

GENERAL (broadcast): a single channel of a control device (Tx) controls all the channels of the actuator devices contained in the system. The address of the control device must be set to “FF”.

Programming is made by connecting the PRAB01 programmer or the BSA-USB interface to the device to give each component of the system an address and operational mode in a very simple and intuitive way.
